currently, about 70k page views per day, with 3 ads per page, that makes it about 210k ad impressions per day. Those numbers are reported by the ad company, so they only include page views and impressions from people who have ads turned on, not those with them turned off.

How about I officially sponser this site? I will pay all the upkeep costs for running the site under these conditions.

1. People must end all posts with "FEEL the WUMP!"

2. When at all possible when posting the word Wump will replace any unneeded verbs and adjectives.

3. LFG will perminatly be renamed to Wump's Board Bytch.

4. Niber will be renamed as ....NM the name Niber is bad enough.

5. Everyone must misspell word and use poor grammar so that they do not appear to be smarter than me.

6. If I descide to flame someone everyone must respond to my flame with comments like "OMFG!, Wump powned that bytch!" or Wump wins game over you lose! No matter how lame my flame was.

Let me know if these terms are acceptable and I will write a check.

While I understand the need for adds its just too many of them. Not to mention being at work its nothing like having an add show talking about pamela anderson exposed or a hugh flashing add that can been seen a long ways saying don't click here if under 18. There are still too many adds that just don't do well at work.

My local evening news reported that there was a Wump in my neighborhood last night, but as expected it was too tiny to feel. Or measure.

We are going to run with this advertiser for a week and see if they can tone that down. If not, I have a backup.

One thing I am saddened by, is that people who aren't viewing ads won't have the opportunity to click on the arcade site that let's you play Scuba Dude. I gotta find that for our arcade.

I like that the ads are on the right side now but...

I want to find whoever designed that talking ipod/iphone advertisement and kick him in the crotch till his unspent genes go into a perpetual recombination loop. And then I'd track down the people who actually fall for that shit and do the same to them.

Also, dunno if it was related to the new ads, but I was browsing one of the Rate-a-Retard threads and tried going on to the next page and my entire browser poofed. Had 3 tabs up and the whole thing just disappeared without asking confirmation the second I clicked the next page. (This is with Vista and IE.)
